Manchester United World Cup player rankings: 6th & 5th

Since Rashford cooly struck his penalty away against Colombia in a nail-biting shootout, the striker continued to make cameo appearances. He entered proceedings for the final seconds of England’s 2-0 win over Sweden and during extra-time of the semi-final against Croatia.

Neither of these opportunities presented Rashford with time to prove why he should be starting ahead of Raheem Sterling. Had he England may have taken more of the chances throughout the tournament.

Despite the lack of minutes, Rashford would have loved the experience and can tick it off his bucket list.

Victor Lindelof has done no harm to his places of becoming a regular at Old Trafford next season with his performances this summer. The Swede has been a rock at the back for a team who kept three clean sheets.

His partnership with hardman Andreas Granqvist was reminiscent of the partnership he had with Chris Smalling at Manchester United last season. The blend of tough tackling and composure.

Lindelof has shown he can be trusted to park the bus too. On numerous occasions, Sweden sat back absorbing pressure and Lindelof was able to stand strong and throw his body on the line.
